Description Josh Bressers 2010-12-06 19:00:23 UTC 
Security researcher wushi of team509 reported that when a XUL tree had an
HTML <div> element nested inside a <treechildren> element then code
attempting to display content in the XUL tree would incorrectly treat the
<div> element as a parent node to tree content underneath it resulting in
incorrect indexes being calculated for the child content. These incorrect
indexes were used in subsequent array operations which resulted in writing
data past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker could use this issue
to crash a victim's browser and run arbitrary code on their machine.
